Why China rejected Trump to Mediate in India and China Border issue
As per report china has rejected US President Donald Trump's offer to mediate between india and china as tensions over data-border disputes continue to rise. "China and india are capable of properly resolving the issues through dialogue and consultation," the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman said.In a surprise move, Mr trump on wednesday offered to "mediate or arbitrate" the raging data-border dispute between india and china, saying he was "ready, willing and able" to ease the tensions, amid the continuing standoff between the armies of the two Asian giants.
When reacting for the first time to the US President's offer, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said the two countries did not want the "intervention" from a third party to resolve the military standoff. Between china and india we have existing data-border-related mechanisms and communication channels," Mr Zhao told reporters. "We are capable of properly resolving the issues between us through dialogue and consultation. We do not need the intervention of the third party," he said.
Several areas along the Line of Actual Control or LAC in Ladakh and North sikkim have seen major military build-up by both the indian and Chinese armies, in a clear signal of escalating tension and hardening of positions by the two sides even two weeks after they were engaged in two separate data-face-offs. india has said the Chinese military was hindering normal patrolling by its troops along the LAC in Ladakh and sikkim, and strongly refuted Beijing's contention that the escalating tension between the two armies was triggered by trespassing of indian forces across the Chinese side.
